## About the role

We've built the go-to-market foundation: a proven GTM motion, a disciplined sales process, and our first distributor contracts across key markets. Now we need an Account Executive to run it and grow it. You'll own the outbound motion, build top-of-funnel pipeline, and carry deals from first touch to close across our maritime, humanitarian, military, and retail channels. This is a full-cycle role for a builder: you'll prospect, qualify, and close, while helping refine the playbook as we scale.

## What they're looking for

- 3+ years of experience in sales, business development, or account management, with meaningful outbound/prospecting experience
- Proven track record of building pipeline from scratch and meeting or exceeding targets
- Full-cycle experience: comfortable prospecting cold and closing deals
- Strong written and verbal communication. You craft outreach that gets replies and presentations that land
- Disciplined and process-driven: you follow a sales process, keep the CRM clean, and forecast honestly
- Self-starter who thrives with autonomy in a fast-paced, early-stage environment
